Why are people using the quasi biblical term 'Naysayers'? I'd had it with 'Evil-doers' but this baby takes the cake.

I do not naysay nor have I ever naysayed. Those evil-doers that naysay are just like you know, bogus dude.

I would say in reference to what usage...but I don't use either term really. Is this something you encounter frequently?
